York - Hotel du Vin or Hotel Indigo?

Going to be spending 2 nights at end of July in York. You may know from other posts that I'm looking for rooms with air conditioning....and I've narrowed it down to Hotel du Vin + Bistro and Hotel Indigo in York. I'll be renting 2 rooms (2 adults + 2 teenage boys). Does anyone have opinions on one vs. the other?

I haven't stayed at either but in your situation I'd probably choose the Indigo. two reasons: 1) it is inside the city walls so a shorter walk to most sites, but mainly 2) it is a modern bldg so the a/c is likely better and not retrofitted like at the Hotel du Vin.
